This is about as clear as this will get.
You k ow what I can't get past is how clean this fermented with Framgarden @31c I'm pleased with this kviek yeast normally I throw alot of hops at it so havnt had a clean representation of it.
It's cider I know but gives me a good idea on the yeast.

@Trialben, what's the ABV on that cider? I ask because the Cider picture is nice and clear but the Helles picture is a little blurry. I think I can guess in what order you consumed them! :p

If it tastes like cardboard it is oxidized. Don't presume my dear, give it a taste and let us know.

Brew mates beer.
Nice head.
Love the malty sweetness and head retention.
Just a bit of hop astringency on the finish but not a bad beer.

Oh it ain't a coopers don't get led astray.

And Aldi Cider you know this ain't too bad boys and girls so simple and a rewarding drink at the end

clearing good now.
Tried the misses on it again she said she'd drink it over some of the ciders she's had at the bar.
It's got a slight sharpness on the Finnish maybe I should leave the gypsum out next crack and maybe add a little calcium by way of chloride hmmm.

Last one on the go tonight hic!
Wayner-s Pale near kicked.

Man this has held on sooo well!
The hop aroma is still fresh and shining!
This brew has made me reconsider the importance of the Whirlpool wow.
I like this verdant yeast the malt is comming through so creamy I understand why some get vanilla off this yeast.

What a great beer!
